- It is summer and the shade garden is absolutely glorious! So much growth has happened since the Spring garden tour, and I can't wait to show you the difference. This shade garden runs the length of our house and our driveway, and we can see it from our two kitchen windows. And what a beautiful sight it is! Come walk with me in the garden.

The fungus problem is an indication of too much water. Treat it with the fungicide, but also pull your mulch back at least 12 inches in diameter around the root crown. Ferns need to breath. Also check to make sure that the crown is level with the soil.
As others have commented, this is a lovely side yard, thank you for sharing! Japanese beetles: I'm in Iowa, and yes, we certainly have them here, its a big problem. Here's what I use, when they start appearing: finely ground black pepper! Yes, this works to repel the beetles, and actually any other pest, including deer and rabbits (there's a huge problem with both of those here too). The way I apply the pepper is to first spritz the plant with water -- can use a spray bottle or a hose set on fine spray), and then sprinkle the pepper on the leaves. The water works as an adhesive, to hold the pepper in place. The pepper will stay there even after the water dries unless washed off by rain (a light rain doesn't wash off the pepper). You don't need to apply the pepper every day, but every few days is good. Put it on any new growth, where you don't see the pepper, or after a rain. Nothing touches my plants when I use the pepper. I have a completely unfenced yard, and I grow lots of vegetables, not just decorative plants and flowers. Nothing gets eaten by bugs or animals, and all I use is the pepper. I just make sure to not put the pepper on flowers, since my garden is visited by pollinators from spring until fall. And I've never had the flowers eaten by anything (except maybe the occasional nibble). The only exception to the 'not putting pepper on flowers' is that I DO put it on my tulips in spring, because deer LOVE tulip flowers (and leaves). With this method, I even get to enjoy tulips! I usually plant at least 100 bulbs because I adore tulips. One note about the pepper: yes, you can see it if you're standing right next to the plant, but not really from a distance. And I'm willing to put up with this slight downside, because no way will I ever use any poison of any kind. I'm organic all the way. Hope this helps anyone out there wanting an easy and cheap natural way of dealing with pests.
I love to see so much variety in a shade garden. It gives me so many good ideas! ❤
I'm so glad! And even now I see areas where I could swap some plants out to add in different colors & textures. That's the fun of gardening, always dreaming and searching to make it just a little bit better. Happy gardening!
@@GardeningwithCreekside yes, the fun part of gardening is it is ever changing. There is always room to dream and grow. 😊
Double aspect window boxes. I'm glad you take into account what your window box display looks like from inside the house which for me is just as important
I see them as much from the inside as I do from the outside. It’s just lovely❣️
I like how clean and spacious that flower is. You can see each plant nicely, but they have grown in nicely to mak
( sorry but my bulldog decided it was time to send it) cont’d...they all have grown in nicely and there is a nice flow from one side to the other . I’ve always thought I had to have a definite line of border plants, but I like your plan better👍
The growth is amazing. Such beautiful plants. Love the area. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
It’s amazing how much it has grown isn’t it! This has quickly become on of my favorite spaces.
Beautiful, I love the way you tell us what the plant is, and put the name up so we can read it, also how to care for it. AWESOME.
Enjoyed the tour of your plants. Everything along the side of your home has bloomed so lovely! How gorgeous is that white falls hydrangea ! Always a joy to watch your channel.
Thank you so much!
Looks awesome! I just added a lady in red fern in my shade garden!
By far, this is one of the most beautiful side yards I've ever seen. The mix of colours, textures are breathtaking. My weakness are hydrangeas. Love all your videos. Wishing you prosperity. Hugs from Ontario, Canada xoxo
Wow, thank you!
You are so right about Japanese beetles--the southern gardener's nemesis!
Solidarity my friend!
I agree-it DOES look fabulous! Perhaps you might take a picture at your kitchen sink, inside, so we can see what you see?! I would love to see that view! 🙂
Wow! Everything is SO beautiful. Thanks for the update!🌻🌼🌸🌹🌺
You are so welcome!
The garden has really filled out beautifully! For the Japanese beetles, if you go out early in the morning they don't fly away, so you can just hold a container of soapy water under the leaves their on and tap the limb and they will just drop off into the container. That's the best way I've found to really cut down on the population in my garden.
I do that morning, noon, and night and they still keep coming. Doggone things.
@@pamelah6431 It took me a few years of doing it to see a difference. Good luck!
A shooting star hydrangea , I remember that was given as a gift to a friend of mine .
We have Japanese beetles and my organic control is my chickens. They run through my flower beds for about 15 minutes and they absolutely decimate them. I’ve had trouble for years with them. This year we have chickens and they did the trick.
Go chi KS go!!! But 15 mi s OnLy
That Garden is Simply Beautiful!!
Everything looks gorgeous! I like how your bed is slightly mounded and raised too.
Thanks so much! 😊 Yes we've got to keep the water draining away from the house because the grass area next to the bed can be a low spot when we get tons of rain.
It is so beautiful! Love when you talk about your flowerbeds so interesting! Keep your videos coming!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful! Love to see the growth throughout the season. Move that beautiful pot out front of the bushes hiding it. It will give more air flow to the plants and growing space. You’ll be able to enjoy the potted planter. Love ❤️ the videos
Those have been my exact thoughts lately. Now to find the right spot!
Love your side garden!❤️ It’s absolutely beautiful! You have inspired me to do something about my garden!
Great video from your favorite nephew.
Thanks buddy❣️
I really enjoy you channel and have learned a lot about hydrangeas. I thoroughly enjoy your humor and additute. You are refreshing. Thank you
Thank you so much! I'm just a girl from NC who happens to love gardening!
@@GardeningwithCreekside me too! Gardening is my therapy
I just love this video, I had to search it out a second time, as I am finally able to plant our shade garden at our new house. Thank you for introducing me to Japanese spikenard.
Everything looks amazing. I didn’t realize this was last year’s garden. Look forward to this year’s video. Happy gardening 🌸🌸
Keep up the good work,you inspire me to do more for a 67 year old lady.
Thank you!
Everything is looking BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you so much for the update. Try to stay cool. 🌸💜🌸
Thank you! You too!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊

Everything is so lush and beautiful !!
I am so happy with how this bed is doing! It’s been a 16+ year journey to get to this point!
Just beautiful and relaxing!!!!! Thanks so much!!! Hope you can have a calm nice day to ponder!!!
Beautiful. Really has grown.
Isn't the difference amazing??? Even I was surprised when I saw the footage from the Spring!
Bonide bettle bagger has been the best thing! The Japanese beetles had feasted on my roses I bought the beetle bagger and it has been amazing. I haven’t had to use any sprays. I highly recommend!!
Unfortunately in our experience the bags only attract more of the beetles. Thanks for the tip though!
Kentucky weather is like that as well and we have the same saying. Give it a minute. Lol beautiful garden and the Sunking Spikenard is now on my bucket list. Thanks
You are so welcome!
Thank you so muck for adding the zones. I appreciate it so much!!!
Absolutely❣️
Beautiful garden space! The ferns and the lace cap hydrangeas especially! Have a blessed day!
Thank you! You too!
Ferns! It just needs more air flow, normally they have about an inch or more around each fern leaf. They also take over!!! LOL so just a warning! ♥️ Beautiful shade garden!!! Love love love the window boxes, so beautiful!
Thanks! Happy gardening!
Love your flower bed... I share your " strong dislike" of Japanese bettles. Grrrr. They are all over my roses and such.
At least we're not alone friend!
Wow what an incredible display. I am so inspired! I didn't know that a shade garden could be so colorful. I love how you walked through the details of each plant.
Thanks!
Thank you amazing lady ! You inspire me ... your garden is so beautiful
So nice of you, thank you!
Thank you for sharing! Everything looks beautiful!
You’re so welcome! Thank you for watching!
Try Bag-A-Bug Beetle Traps. Just hang them and let them do their thing. Works like a charm!
Great video! Love the update - wow so beautiful but as informative as this entire video was the best part of the video was the last few seconds!!! I love it - we get to see your beautiful shade garden... we get some knowledge and a little bit of entertainment! 👏🏾🥰
Beautiful garden plants , and home reminds me of my brothers in Salisbury NC
Salisbury isn’t far at all from us!
The white Hydrangea that you wasn’t sure of the name, is White lace. I bought one a few years ago and that is what the tag had on it. Hope this helps. I love the one I have and have even rooted it and now I have four. My goal is to do a row of them on my new property in the mountains. I love your side yard and you have give me some great ideas for plants in the North Georgia Mountains. Just BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for sharing.
beautiful garden. inspired to plant along my side yard. just the right amount of plants where you can enjoy the variety. you are very entertaining 💗💗
You can do it!
Gorgeous! Shade gardens are one of my favorite types of gardens. Mainly because in the heat of Summer, it like a sweet place of respite .
Yes ♥️♥️♥️

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Mmmmm
This is so beautiful and giving me so much inspiration!
I use a product call bag a bug to capture the Japanese beetle. I live rural and last year the fields around me were soy beans. They love the beans and just as much love my flowers. They were all over everything...creepy bugs. This year has corn in the fields, so not so many yet but when my rose of sharon blooms, that might change.
Aren’t they just terrible?! 🤦🏻♀️
Love the shade garden but absolute fav is the hay racks beautiful colours, thank you Jenny, stay cool ❤
You are so welcome! We're trying to stay cool but it's summer in the south & the heat & humidity are here!
Beautiful garden! Organic Japanese beetle solution: NEEM oil + dish detergent + water. It really works.
Thanks for the tip! Do you have a ratio or "recipe" for the solution? I would LOVE to try it!!!
T S I would like recipe also
I would love the “recipe” as well!
1 tsp Neem Oil
1/2 tsp liquid dish soap
1 quart of water
Mix them up good and spray all over plant they’re attracted to, either early morning or evening. I drench the foliage and if any left over pour onto soil around base of plant. Believe it’s weekly and after heavy rains. I got the most lily blooms this year, and think it’s because I repeated this about 4 times this season.
So beautiful! I would love to see the front of your home .
Thank you! We are working on a video that will give you some of those shots!
Just spent the day prepping a new space and planted 3 little quick fire hydrangeas, one climbing hydrangea, and some beautiful Tokyo huechera. Got them from Rountree and from Southern Styles nursery. Know you are familiar with them!! A SC neighbor!
That sounds lovely!
Enjoyed this very much!
So glad!
So pretty. You've given me ideas. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
It all looks just beautiful!!! Wow
I have a golden Japanese spikenard, they are spectacular!
This video has given me great ideas!!!
GORGEOUS!
I love your window boxes!! They are beautiful!! Also love your videos!! Thanks for sharing!!!🌱🥀🦋
Beautiful garden..perfect light.
Yes we were super excited how the evening light looked in the video, thank you!
I love you 💕 and your videos God Bless you and your plants😃!
Everything looks so beautiful .
Thank you! 🤗
Jenny those hostas in bloom look like my GOLDEN TIERRA.
I have been using Milky Spore for Japanese Beetles for the last 3 years. I found 3 beetles this year. YES, three! It does work and it is organic.
Excellent!!! We have got to do that to our property!
Great selection of plants in your flower bed. I’m taking notes! I have a shady and sunny location and can really go either way. I’m adding ferns to my landscape next.
Glad you found it helpful!
So beautiful
Thank you so much❣️
Beautiful
Thank you 😊
I use to have a terrible time with Japanese beetles. I stated using Milky Spore over the years. You sprinkle the Milky Spore powder on the ground and it is a spore that kills the beetle in the grub stage. I have used it a very long time ago and now I see very few beetles around my yard with no more applications. Your side garden is beautiful and love the widow boxes!
I have to spray Neem on my ferns almost weekly. Cincinnati zone 6a lots of humidity!!
I’m also in Cincinnati and about to plant a bunch of my first ferns, thanks for the heads up!
Lovely garden bed! I think I can ID your mystery hostas because I have the same in my garden. They’re called Golden Tiara 👑
Your flowerbed is gorgeous! Wow!! I detest Japanese beetles - we have them and they are absolutely gross 😝 - I actually go beetle picking lol. Small sandwich bag and have them fly into it and gone! They sometimes flight for life so shut the bag quickly.
Thanks for the tips!
Such a beautiful bed. LOVE the window boxes and can clearly imagine the enjoyment from both sides of the window. Frannie's Hydrangea looks like a 'Shooting Star' - I bought one last year and the blooms look similar. I had no idea it would get that big though, and mine might not in a zone 6, but I'm hoping it does - yours is BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for the tour.
Ohh, I’ll have to look that one up and see if it’s it. Happy gardening!
nice flowers
Looks gorgeous.
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous Jenny!😊
Thank you! 😊
I think you should move that blue pot to the right of Diva nd left of Franny. The beautiful blue would mirror the low growing blue in front.
I like it!!!! I see some container moving in my morning schedule 😉
See!!! I watch your content!!!
Excellent! Happy gardening!
As soon as I heard your voice, I knew you had to be from North Carolina. Haha I am from NC too. Love your garden! Im trying to find beautiful shade perennial flowers and shrubs to plant in zone 8.
Thank you for this video 😀 I now have some ideas.
I grow lettuce as hostas and put lawn grass in my containers
The large hydrangea with the white and blue flowers you were speaking of looks like the Fuji Waterfall hydrangea. I have two in my yard and they are spectacular! You have a beautiful shade garden. I live in the Sandhills, so I know what you mean about the weather.💧💦⚡️🌬🌪🌈
Try natural spray. Baking soda,dawn dish washing liquid and veggie oil.
Gorgeous! You are blessed!
Love those sun kings! Reminds me a little bit of the sunshine illicium I planted color wise.
I totally agree!
Beautiful side bed
Very beautiful shady bed😀
Great video of your beautiful shade garden! I especially liked the ending. 😂
Beautiful!
Thank you❣️
Great video Jenny!
Thank you so much❣️
Enjoyed this. Here in coastal North Carolina near Wilmington 😍👍
Great job 😊🇨🇦
Thank you! 😊
I think Franny's Waterfall Hydrangea is the Fairytale bride cascade hydrangea
Super garden
Everything is so gorgeous and I did subscribe😊❤️😊
Welcome! We’re so glad you enjoyed the video❣️
Bạn ơi cảnh vườn nhà bạn đẹp quá bạn ơi
I find the traps to be very effective against Japanese beetles for me in Virginia. It's called "RESCUE! Japanese & Oriental Beetle Trap". I also found an essential oil blend (Donaldson Farms Japanese Beetle Trap Attractant) to refresh the attractant.
"Bless you heart"!! Here in Tennessee we know what THAT means! 🤭🤭🤭
😉😂
Franny's hydrangea is a "shooting star", I also had it in baby pink called, "pink paracel".
Thank you!
Japanese Beetles ---- here is how to get rid of them .....Put on a pair of gloves ( the grippy ones are the best ) .... then just start picking the Beetles off one at a time and smash them between your fingers ..... Believe me you won't feel a thing .... Except happy that you got rid of them .... In my yard they like to feast on my flowers and spraying them just doesn't work ... !!! ..... Hugs ..... Shirlene
Thank you!
Franny's Hydrangea looks like the Hydrangea macrophyllum ' Fuji Waterfall '
I had in my garden.
That’s it! We were able to identify it with the help of our viewers last year 🙌🏻
